OAuth 2.0 Web Server Flow in Salesforce | Implementation using LWC

In this video, we are going to talk about OAuth 2.0 Web Server Flow for Web App Integration. The first step in this flow is to get the authorization code, then 2nd step is to get the access token.
Here are the Salesforce docs

Hi @Samarth , Can you please tell how did you placed LWC component on Salesforce Site ? I used LWC component on App Page and also on Lightning Tab but on redirection code in the url disappear before JS file reads it. Thanks.

[@samCoder]

Hey, It’s a experience builder site. There you can place your lightning components

[@bakshirocks]

Hello, can’t we make the POST call to get the token directly from JS file using FETCH instead of calling APEX?

[@samCoder]

Hey, we can’t. Seems like Salesforce won’t allow that for their token endpoints.

[@bakshirocks]

Hi Samarth, great video and series. I have one question if you can pls respond. Can we not use Named Credentials and Auth Providers to achieve all of these integrations? If thats correct, then whats the need of performing all of these steps? Are named credentials/auth providers not available for all types of integrations? And also do we need to create a connected APP only when we are using Auth Provider? Because in this video we did not have to create one? Please respond if you can..

[@samCoder]

Hi, Named Credentials and Auth Providers are used when we want to make a callout from Salesforce. While this series is about OAuth Flows in Salesforce, which is needed when the external application needs to make a request to Salesforce. Before making the request, external app will need a access token. So these flows are basically used to handle Call-ins

[@bakshirocks]

@@samCoderWhat if we want to make an authenticated callout to a third party which is not present as auth provider in salesforce? In that case, we can only create an auth provider if they support open ID connect? Or else we will have to create the oAuth logic like you did in this video? Thanks for the response..!

[@samCoder]

@@bakshirocks use Openid connect. If that’s not feasible, write a custom logic.

[@kushalreddy4433]

Can I log in to another org with my client credentials?

[@kushalreddy4433]

Like I want to login to any org with only username and password and not their client credentials and access token

[@samCoder]

You can use OAuth Username password flow to get the access token for that specific org using your credentials.
